Review on Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter Black by Darnell Nahabet

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works great when it works but intermittently

This works great when it seems to work but fails VERY when connected wirelessly. (I use it just a dozen feet from the TV on my Surface Pro 4, so I really wasn't expecting these issues. It's not exactly line of sight, but it's close, and really almost nothing happened inside.) More annoying than stalling, lagging, and desperately trying to catch up with the picture when the connection is lost, the audio can become out of sync. Audio timing is more important than video quality, but the MS engineers who built this thing didn't get it. This might be fine for slideshows, but not for videos. (I bought it primarily to be able to watch YouTube on the big screen without having to mess with the awful FireTV YouTube player.) I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy this thing. It just doesn't work.

Pros
  • DVI-HDMI adapter
Cons
  • Crumpled
